Position Sian Kaan

Beach Access Beachfront, directly on the sand

— Casa Almaviva is reachable from Cancun (CUN), about 2 hours 45 minutes by car, or Tulum (TQO), about 1 hour 45 minutes. Most guests rent a car; third-party transfers are available at additional cost. Check-in runs 3:00-10:00 p.m., and because the unlit Sian Ka'an access road has little traffic after dark, first-time guests are asked to arrive before sundown.

About this Property

Casa Almaviva in Sian Kaan

Casa Almaviva — interior and outdoor living spaces

00 — Overview

Casa Almaviva is a four-bedroom beachfront villa inside the Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage site roughly 22 kilometers south of Tulum beach on a dirt access road. The villa is fully staffed, with caretaker and chef David preparing every meal from local ingredients, including daily catch brought by a local fisherman. Casa Almaviva runs off-grid on solar power, with 50 panels and a battery system, backed by a generator. All four bedrooms have air conditioning; the open-air, palapa-covered living room relies on sea breeze instead. A full board or half board meal plan, covering meals and beverages, is required for every stay.

01 — Indoor Living

Open, layered interiors

The living area sits beneath a large palapa, open on all sides to the sea breeze rather than air conditioned, with covered space for dining and lounging. All four bedrooms are air conditioned and set apart from the shared living space, so guests can retreat from the heat overnight. Meals are prepared and served family style by chef David, who specializes in Mexican and Mayan cuisine, with breakfast egg preparations made to order and vegetarian or pescatarian alternatives available with advance notice.

02 — Outdoor & Pool

Designed for the day outside

Casa Almaviva sits a few steps from the Caribbean Sea, with the Mesoamerican Reef roughly 400 meters offshore, about a 25-minute swim with fins. The villa’s pool offers an alternative to the sea on days when sargassum affects the shoreline. Local fishermen bring their daily catch directly to the villa, and ceviche and lobster paella are among chef David’s specialties.

03 — Bedrooms

Sleeping for 11

Casa Almaviva has four bedrooms with air conditioning, sleeping up to 11 guests. The open-air living and dining areas are covered by a large palapa and are not air conditioned, so evenings are cooled by sea breeze rather than mechanical air, consistent with the villa’s off-grid, solar-powered design.

04 — Setting & Positioning

Where the house sits

Destination Profile

Tulum

Tulum is the Caribbean coast at its most seductive — a stretch of white sand and turquoise water on Mexico’s Riviera Maya where the jungle runs right to the beach, Mayan ruins sit on a cliff above the sea, and the villas are among the most distinctive in the country. Our homes here span the full range: beachfront estates on the sand, architectural jungle villas with private pools hidden among the trees, and staffed retreats on the quiet bays north of town. Most combine natural materials, palapa roofs, and open-air living with the polish of a fully serviced home. What makes Tulum unlike anywhere else on this coast is the mix of nature and design. The clifftop ruins are the only Mayan site built on the sea; the freshwater cenotes inland — Gran Cenote, Dos Ojos, and dozens more — offer some of the world’s best cavern swimming and diving; and the vast Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage site, begins just south of the beach road. Above it lies a famously bohemian-chic scene of beach clubs, wellness and yoga retreats, and a restaurant culture that has become genuinely world-class. Tulum rewards travelers who want beauty and character rather than a resort strip. The villas suit families, groups of friends, and celebrations who want space, privacy, and service — homes with private chefs, housekeeping, and concierge planning, many beachfront or with jungle pools, and some large enough for weddings and milestone gatherings. Access has transformed since Tulum International Airport opened, putting the beach around thirty minutes from arrivals, with Cancun a comfortable drive north. Share your dates, group size, and whether you want a beachfront estate, a jungle villa with a private pool, or a quiet home on Soliman or Tankah Bay, and we’ll send a curated shortlist of Tulum villas, with every rate, service charge and booking condition itemized in the written quotation.

How many guests does Casa Almaviva sleep?

Casa Almaviva sleeps up to 11 guests across 4 bedrooms, with 3.5 bathrooms. What a group can comfortably use depends on the room-by-room configuration rather than the bedroom count alone, so we confirm the layout against your party before you book.

Where is Casa Almaviva located?

Casa Almaviva is in Sian Kaan, Tulum. We can confirm drive times from the airport and what is within reach on foot before you commit to the location.

Is Casa Almaviva really beachfront?

Yes. Casa Almaviva sits directly on the sand with its own access to the beach, with no road or path in between.

Does Casa Almaviva include a chef?

A chef is included in the rate at Casa Almaviva. Groceries are normally billed separately at cost, and menus are agreed with you before arrival — we confirm the exact arrangement in writing before you book.

How much does Casa Almaviva cost, and how do we book?

Rates are quoted per stay rather than published as a single number, because they move with the season, the length of stay and the size of the group, and taxes and fees vary by destination. Send your dates and we confirm availability and the rate with the owner before anything is charged.

Every stay is concierge-handled. Chef, transfers, wellness, excursions, provisioning — all coordinated through a single specialist.
